Mork and Mindy was a
1970s half-hour
sci-fi-based
situation comedy starring
Robin Williams as Mork, an alien who had come to
Earth, and
Pam Dawber[?] as Mindy, his human comedic foil. This was Robin Williams's first major acting break. Though the show was a
spinoff from
Happy Days, which was set in the
1950s,
Mork and Mindy was set in
1970s Boulder,
Colorado.
The comedian Jonathan Winters appeared in later episodes as the couple's infant son.
